The Average Repair Costs of Foundation Work

You want numbers, so here are numbers. We estimate the average repair contract costs in the range of $4,000 up to $8,000. Of course, every repair job is unique and thus some projects will cost under $1,000 while larger commercial projects might cost over $20,000 or more.

The size of a specific home is one of the major facets impacting the final costs of your foundation repair work. Logic tells us that, the larger a house is, the more material might be needed to address any foundation issues when compared to similar damage to a smaller house. The foundation structure of a large house can also be more complicated (more supports, beams, piers, pylons, and even sometimes additional interior walls) which means there could be more pieces of the foundation which need attention.

In addition to the size of a home, the other significant aspect to estimating a foundation or basement project is, of course, the type of damage which needs our attention. Many homeowners wisely decide to have preventative work done before significant foundation damage sets in, instead of waiting for something bad to occur and then deal with the damage. In almost all instances, preventative work will cost less than jobs requiring extensive damage mitigation. In all cases, however, you can be sure that ignoring a foundation or basement require issue will only cause the problems to grow worse over time, thereby increasing the repair cost.
